[OpenSpending] Help review spending data in Open Data Census

[Anders Pedersen]

Hi James,

Thanks!

So what would you suggest would be the appropriate rating for Canada on
"spending data" based on what we'd positively now?

2 (*in bold*) out of 7?

   - *Data exists*
   - It's unclear if it's openly licensed
   - It's **publicy available
   - It's machine-readable
   - *It's digital*
   - It's **up-to-date
   - It's **available in bulk

Best,
Anders
